Aouch !

Hi every-wine (haha, little joke),

From the beginning of our activity on this blog, we told you about our best wine experiences, this is actually the aim of this blog. We love you and thank you for your loyalty, and we want to be honest with you because of that. Yes guys, I'm "unglad" to inform you about... BAD WINE EXPERIENCES!

Sure, we are French; we are supposed to think that French winegrowers produce the best wine. Maybe; but we are open-minded, we tasted alien wines and these were yummy. We also tasted bad quality French wines, with terrible acidity (our liver remember the experience). BUT, But... Sometimes it's important to notice when a beverage is just disgusting.

London, Christmas holidays. I'm offered to taste a typical red British wine. Nice. I mean, I'd never try a British wine. So it should be interesting. Interesting, that's the word. British are not well known for their wines, indeed, they are the biggest importer of the world because they don't really have the terroir to produce wine. But, I heard that their sparkling wine was nice, maybe the red could be good too.

Hem...

The nose : woody, fresh.

The palate : yaaaark ! It was such a young wine ! The exact impression was that it was kind of green harvest, so the wine used to be acidic, then they put some blackcurrant syrup in the bottle. Top, finish, the send it to Waitrose and restaurant and sold it about £4. Are they kidding us ?

That's why, dear Followers, beware of the British wines, keep drinking sure beverage, and pleaaaase British winegrowers : stop killing the wine !

Bonus : funny back label, "suitablefor vegetarians" ! I had a good laugh...

Marie-Lou, thank you PAKS  for the experience.
